Chicago examiner | vol xlll no 278 a Chicago november 11 1015 t i~<x-m in cliicago and elsewhere price one cent sutxurt two cents thursday thursday registered 0 s patent office u.s.in era of record boom says armour by boeksianek america is rising rapidly to unprecedented prosperity in conceivable a year ago and enduring declares packer war in europe hastened uncle sam's leadership but con flict's end will not affect supremacy of the nation j ogden armour declares america is rapidly rising to * an unprecedented prosperity a prosperity which would have been inconceivable a year ago and which will be enduring it will be boom like for say three years and should not be affected by a termination of the european war within that time for a captain of industry whose reticence restraint and conservatism are proverbial the above declaration is interesting and instructive war has hastened american leadership the idea that the cessation of european hostilities must affect us adversely is i believe aca demic said mr armour in the first place emigration from the countries now at war will be pro hibited they will be forced to take this step because the conflict means an exhaustion of men as well as of treasure men will be needed over there as much if not more than money there can be no competition between a country of america's great vigor and in finite resources and countries that have spent themselves america was destined to lead the world commercially and finan cially in fifteen years the war simply hastened that manifest des tiny for an american to fear the aftermath of the war appears to me baseless the president of armour & co then proceeded to give reasons for his unshakable optimism farm products basis of new prosperity ours is not a war prosperity although to be sure ammunition orders are accelerating the pace he said it is fundamental in that the products of the farm are the basis of it we are still large ly an agricultural community and as agriculture prospers the whole country prospers look at our crops and the prices we are getting for them both have no parallel in the coun try's annals wheat was late in harvesting but is now coming abundantly to market the enor mous daily exports show that the corn yield is bountiful the run of hogs will be large the demand for these neces saries is in proportion to their sup ply europe is buying as she has never bought before and the swell ing bank deposits reflect the heavy european payments as well as the affluence of the farmer national city bank cited as an example take for example the national city bank of new york of which mr armour is a director a year ago the gross deposits of that institution were 245,000,000 to-day they are more than 300 000,000 the shares of the in stitution have risen 150 points bankers as a rule have been hard put by these startling in creases rates are low but the ouey will all be prqfitably em ployed it is only a question of lime and the employment of so much money will mean just so much more prosperity the south which only a few cyclone kills six or more at greatbend,kas 50 are injured light power and water plants are wrecked fires start in debris by
